Wire Pulling Tools for Utility Applications

Utility Pipe Supply stocks the wire and cable pulling tools contractors rely on for underground utility, fiber and electrical work: pulling swivels and break-away swivels, innerduct and power pulling eyes, cable grips and pulling socks in galvanized, stainless steel and non-metallic aramid, capstans and cable pullers, sheaves, mounts and cable trailers, and the chain connectors, swing links and rope adapters that tie a pull together.

Every pull starts with a clean, proven duct, so this range also covers the duct swabs, brush mandrels and test mandrels used to clean and prove conduit before cable goes in.

Sized from light fiber pulls through to 120,000 lb directional drilling work, with certified quality, in-stock availability and nationwide delivery. Not sure which grip, eye or swivel suits your cable and duct? Call us at (815) 337-8845 and we will size it with you.
